Slow boot time

[stevef]

Topic moved to Startup and Shutdown section.

Using an SSD (if not already) reduces the time required for disk access.

Checking what these commands show might be a starting point to see how the boot up time is spent.

Code:

systemd-analyze

Code:

systemd-analyze blame

Code:

systemd-analyze critical-chain

Code:

journalctl -b -0

(run this just after a boot)

If unnecessary services are being started at boot, disabling them may help.
Setting static addressing if possible removes the DHCP time
